You are most welcome. And thanks for the handy.

You can also take shit posting on OR to a new level.

Scott's Diner New Concord. Always a good meal and yes, excellent pie. The strawberry pie is awesome.

Try to help the guy out and all I get is the grammar Nazis. Fuck you guys.

You are allowed, but I am going to move this to the forearms area. Damn that is a pretty gun.

Yes but it has to be pretty bad and go on for awhile.

I am confused. Is this thread about Duc attention whores or butt hurt Kaw owners?

@Pauly @Gixxus Christ!

Agree, pull the plugs and look at color. If any look wrong check for spark on that wire.

Totally agree. The Wing has it.

When I was thinking of getting serious on the track and getting a bike for it, that was mandatory requirement of any of the bikes I looked at.

Looks to me like the back slid out first. Did you get on the back brake there? It sure looks like it.

Hating my 11am meeting right about now.

Prepare to be disappointed.

@Uncle Punk

With everything still there including the handlebars and throttle I am thinking you could turn that into the fastest jack ever.

I would have put it in its own thread for better exposure. Helpful mod that I am, I can move it.

Considering I just ordered and have not gotten it let alone used it, no I have no experience with it.

Based on the recommendation of an OR member that isn't a dumbass (amazingly there really is one), I just ordered some 'Bike Bright'. He uses it for just this purpose and swears by it.

So what does everyone do to get off the rain grime from the hard to reach places, and the undercarriage?

I would suggest knitting. Lots of hot Grandma's do that, you could get lucky.

I bought Fred's videos. Really helpful.

Well that fucking sucked. Saturday took the wheels off to get new tires. I added a hidden receiver for a cooler rack under the rear fender so that had to come off. Sunday I put the new tires on, then put the receiver back on. Snapped a bolt that goes into a block that is welded to the trunk brace. Good half inch sticking out but it wouldn't budge. So I needed to heat it, but it's right up against the right saddle bag. So that had to come off. To get that off I had to pull the seat, two panels below the seat. The backrest so I could pull all three trunk panels off....then I had to unhook all the shit in the saddle bags. Manual release cable that goes to the left bag and a manual release cable for the trunk. FM antenna, GPS antenna and a fucking Bluetooth antenna for the passenger because it's too far to the front one I guess. Heated the bolt and it came right out. That took all of Sunday afternoon and night. Monday I chased the threads and got the receiver back on. From 5 PM until now to put it all back together.

At this point I think your best bet is to get a new Goldwing and join the GWRA. Lots of old people in that group I am told. They know all the best places to go eat. Plus some of them have trikes!
